I Became a Medical Genius in the 80s

Chapter 1288: Chapter 1287: Distrust

The small courtyard underwent three renovations, and now it has a dedicated guest reception area. The living quarters for Beisitian and the others have been moved to the inner courtyard, which is equivalent to a third courtyard. The front section is the guest area, further in is where Gao Ma and other help reside, and the innermost courtyard is where Beisitian and the others’ living quarters are.

It remains the same as Mrs. Qin’s courtyard, except the front passage has been blocked, and a separate one has been opened at the back. The path is longer, but relatively quieter.

Luo Yirui and Tian Zhi didn’t go far after coming out; they just started chatting in the courtyard.

”Uncle, has my Black Cat returned?” Luo Yirui asked.

Tian Zhi’s gaze darkened slightly, ”It hasn’t returned. Has it escaped again?”

Despite being Qingyu’s people, only a few knew Black Coal Ball’s true nature. This time Beisitian decided to bring Black Coal Ball along to probe its real identity and secrets.

Luo Yirui quickly waved his hand, ”Black Coal Ball helped us a lot this time. It even blew up the branch base of the ’factory,’ very impressive. But when the whole factory turned into a sea of fire, we fled hurriedly, and it didn’t follow. That’s why I’m a bit worried.”

He lowered his head as he spoke. More than worry, he thought of returning to find Black Coal Ball several times on the way, but he knew returning meant running into those bad people. If captured, his parents would be caught in a tough spot.

Moreover, Black Coal Ball has its own mind. During that situation, if they could escape, Black Coal Ball certainly could too, so it must have stayed behind for some reason.

However, the situation was very dangerous, and Luo Yirui was still very worried.

”Don’t worry, it’s not your regular cat, it can even blow up branch bases. So capable, it won’t die easily.”

Tian Zhi’s reassurance brought a smile to Luo Yirui, knowing that if Black Coal Ball returned, it would surely boast for a long time.

The two chatted for a while longer before the door opened, and Jing Changle appeared with an enigmatic expression.

Luo Yirui and Tian Zhi entered the living room. Gong Yunfei’s eyes were red, obviously having cried, Jing Yuansi sat beside, still in a daze, and Gong Chengyan seemed somewhat despondent.

Neither Luo Yirui nor Tian Zhi asked much, and Gong Chengyan and his sister bid farewell shortly. As they left, he said to Jing Changle: ”Whether you believe it or not, these are the facts.”

Jing Changle merely nodded, expressing nothing. Gong Chengyan gave him one last look, sighed, and turned to leave.

After he left, Jing Changle collapsed into the chair, finally ceasing the pretense of strength.

”Are you not planning to go back?” Luo Yirui asked.

Tian Zhi thought about it and decided not to get involved for now. From the looks of it, Jing Changle’s identity seemed quite complicated, and knowing nothing of the situation, he’d rather keep quiet.

Luo Yirui and Jing Changle went to the inner courtyard, and on the way, Jing Changle shared his thoughts.

”I don’t trust them,” Jing Changle sighed.

He had countless times imagined knowing his origins, but now, faced with this truth, his doubts surged wildly. Especially when thinking about his mother’s death, he couldn’t trust these so-called relatives suddenly appearing.

However, that sister he scrutinized countless times. Sadly, she seemed uninvolved with him, sitting there in a daze, clearly affected by the blow of their mother’s death.

Luo Yirui patted his shoulder, ”I wish you’d stay in the small courtyard, but mom says you have your own sky.”
